I have posted a couple of times before and a huge thank you and apology for the lovely mums that respond. I haven’t posted quite enough information to get the help I need and really do appreciate your help. I will start again and give you abit of background.
We’re currently in a two bedroom house in east London and have two babies under two. We’re looking to move before my first born starts school but there’s a huge problem. We just don’t know what area to move to!
We’ve had a look at West Finchley, Finchley and it’s mostly over our budget but we also weren’t too keen on the area (high street mostly). We preferred Southgate and did go to view a house which was close to Ashmole academy, which I understand is supposed to be very good. We did like the area and high street and thought the houses/street looked nice and the high street was good too.
Our budget currently stands at £650k maximum and we are looking at other areas. So we would like a semi/terraced (semi preferred), garden, three bed with potential to extend, big enough rooms, to be close(ish) to a London Underground station, have good schools in the area, nice/upmarket high street.
We’ve seen some houses in the following areas;
East Finchley, Southend, Harrow, Perivale, Greenford, Hendon, Edgware, burnt oak, Pinner, Ruislip, Mill Hill, Colindale.
Please can I bother you for your opinions or thoughts on any of these areas if they are known to you? I would like to know if there is a good mix of people, does it feel safe, antisocial behaviour, are there lots to do with kids? Are the primary schools good? If so which ones? I have so many questions and my mind is all over the place!
TIA
